Ombrex 1400W: the cheap 3-in-1 garment steamer

Prices in euros from Amazon.de, as of 11 June 2026. Prices and availability may differ on Amazon.co.uk.

By Seydhan Cakmak · Editor-in-chief · Updated: · AI-translated from the German original

At around €26 the Ombrex is one of the cheapest ways into travel garment steamers and offers surprisingly much for it: dry ironing, four steam levels and a self-cleaning function. The soleplate that swivels by 90° allows flat as well as vertical ironing, and the 110 ml tank is enough for shorter sessions. At 0.75 kg it is light enough for travel and everyday use.

Ombrex 1400W 3-in-1: what works, what doesn't?

What works well

  • Very cheap way in: at around €26 one of the cheapest travel garment steamers with dry and steam function
  • Self-cleaning function: flushes out limescale and residues, a sensible extra with hard water for longer service life
  • Dry + 4 steam levels: versatile for different fabrics from silk to cotton, plus pure dry ironing
  • Light at 0.75 kg: compact 24 × 5 × 7 cm and low weight make it a practical travel companion
  • 90° swivelling soleplate: allows flat and vertical ironing without awkwardly turning the device

Points of criticism

  • Small 110 ml tank: too small for longer ironing sessions, frequent refilling with larger amounts of laundry
  • Contradictory specifications: the manufacturer mixes tank sizes of 100 and 110 ml; the real capacity is unclear
  • No-name brand: with Ombrex, support and spare parts supply are hard to judge, factor that in at the low price

Build quality & everyday use

What carries the Ombrex 1400W 3-in-1 in everyday use: very cheap way in (at around €26 one of the cheapest travel garment steamers with dry and steam function) and self-cleaning function (flushes out limescale and residues, a sensible extra with hard water for longer service life). We have to be honest about the weaknesses: small 110 ml tank, too small for longer ironing sessions, frequent refilling with larger amounts of laundry.

If you set the device up to save space, make sure it stands on a stable, level surface with some air around it. This protects the mechanics and electronics in continuous use.

“Ombrex 1400W garment steamer: very cheap way in and self-cleaning function, and the trade-off is a small 110 ml tank. At 7.7/10 a fair deal from €26.”
